The first call was routed into the bank's southeast headquarters in Greenville Thursday, just after 12:30 p.m.

"Today marks a very special day because we will be doing it for the first time," said Simon Hong, TD Bank's contact center senior vice president.

So far, a staff of around 65 people has been hired.

The bank estimates it will need to hire about two people a day between now and the end of the year. It needs that to fully staff its regional headquarters in Greenville, which is now home to what will become a massive customer service center for the bank.

"Yes TD Bank is hiring. We will be hiring 60 banking specialists a month between now and December," said Hong.
